ST. CLAIRSVILLE — The Belmont County Commission is accepting applications to fill two positions on the Board of Developmental Disabilities as well as one position on the Law Library Resource Board.

Interested parties can contact the commission office at 740-699-2155 to request applications.

Commissioners also announced the Wednesday, Dec. 4 meeting will be rescheduled to 9 a.m. Tuesday, Dec. 3, due to a scheduling conflict. The Wednesday, Dec. 11 meeting will be changed from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m., also due to a scheduling conflict.

Commissioner Jerry Echemann then made a motion to approve a revision to the Belmont County Personnel Policy Manual Section 6.1 to add Christmas Eve as a paid holiday for employees.

He then made the motion to approve and sign the contract for sale and purchase of Real Property Without Buildings between the Belmont County Commission and the Trustee of Ronald R. Reger Irrevocable Trust dated January 30, 2012 for $300 for the purchase of parcel 7-WD, BEL-CR 4-27.05.

Echmann noted that the land is needed as a right-of-way for the upcoming bridge replacement on Glenn Run Road.

Echemann then made the motion to approve and sign the Notice of NatureWorks grant funding document for the Belmont County Dog Park.

“The Belmont County Commissioners hereby agree to be bound by the terms of the grant agreement as they relate to the property,” He said. “The property must be operated and maintained solely for public recreation or natural resource purposes throughout the term of bond.”

Commissioners then made two resolutions involving Belmont County Department of Job and Family Services Director Jeff Felton.

The first resolution was to assign Felton the authority to serve as the board’s designee with authority to request and sign inter-county adjustments of allocations on behalf of Belmont County, which will be in effect through 2025. The second resolution grants Felton authority to transfer funds from the public assistance fund to the child support enforcement agency fund for the fiscal year of 2024 and 2025.

The final motion was to advise the Ohio Division of Liquor Control. The Commissioners did not request a hearing on the matter of a request for the transfer of a D4 liquor license permit number 528497514628 from the Lafferty Moose Lodge.

“The Commissioners have no objections to the permit,” Echemann said.
